LocoCruiser standard series decoder user manual Ver1.0
15
Not all CVs must accept values ranging from 0 to 255. The permitted values for LocoCruiser
decoders are listed in the table in chapter 7 showing all available CVs.
6.1.2 Bits and Bytes
Most CVs contain numbers: CV1 for instance contains the locomotive address. This can be
any number between 1 and 127. While most CVs expect numbers to be entered, some
others are rather like a “ collection point” of various”switches”, that administer different
functions in one CV (mainly ”on” or “off”): CVs29 and 49 are good examples: you must
calculate the value for these CVs yourself. The value depends on which settings you want to
program:
Have a look at the explanations for CV29 in the table in chapter 7: firstly, decide which
options should be active. The column “Value” has two numbers for each option. If the option
is switched off, the value is 0. Otherwise, it is a number between 1 and 128.
Add all the values for the respective options to arrive at the correct value for this CV.
